Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

SeaweedFS fast distributed storage system for blobs, objects, files and datalake
If you're talking about this https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh ... Iroh is a p2p file syncing protocol. That's not even close to the same wheelhouse as SeaweedFS?

I Moved My Blog from IPFS to a Server
Totally biased founder here, but I work on https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh, a thing that started off as an IPFS implementation in rust, but we broke out & ended up doing our own thing. We're not at the point where the iroh implements "the full IPFS experience" (some parts border on impossible to do while keeping a decentralized promise), but we're getting closer to the "p2p website hosting" use case each week.

Willow Protocol
if you are looking for something similar to ipfs but a bit more minimalistic and performance oriented, check out iroh https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh .
It is a set of open source libraries for peer to peer networking and content-addressed storage. It is written in rust, but we have bindings to many languages.
One part of iroh is a work in progress implementation of the willow spec. The lower layers include a networking library similar to libp2p and a library for content-addressed storage and replication based on blake3 verified streaming.
Most iroh developers have been active in the ipfs community for many years and have shared similar frustrations... See this talk from me in 2019 :-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qzu0xtCT-R0

Iroh: A New Implementation of IPFS in Rust
We have an initial release out since earlier today: https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh/releases/tag/v0.1.0 but we are still very early, so be gentle :)

ACM SIGCOMM'22: Design and Evaluation of IPFS
(Disclosure: I work for the Filecoin Foundation/Filecoin Foundation for the Decentralized Web).
I do actually agree that the privacy and anonymity aspects of IPFS are not well- conveyed. I think people get hooked on the "censorship-resistant" nature of decentralized systems, without understanding that even if you have multiple sources, for instance in a content-addressable network like IPFS, aggressive censorship systems have other strategies to dissuade dissemination or punish readers. You always have to be thinking a few steps ahead. Services like Tor and, I hope, the IPFS network both try to convey what threat models they are useful for, and which they are not, but it's really hard to stop overenthusiastic re-statements that give them super-powers they do not, in fact, possess.
That said, there's a bunch of careful thinking right now going on about how IPFS's privacy story could be improved: https://blog.ipfs.tech/ipfs-ping-2022-recap/ has a couple of sessions on this, and is a great summary of some other recent developments in the space.
One of those improvements is in the point about nodes being high CPU, RAM, etc. (I actually find this to be more of a challenge when running the full IPFS Go node locally on my desktop, rather than on a VPS; it requires some tweaking.)
The strategy right now is to encourage more implementations of IPFS to cover more use-cases; the original go-ipfs had to do everything, including maintaining some legacy decisions. Nowadays, there's a lot of effort on alternative IPFS implementations that can be slimmer, or optimised for particular scenarios, e.g. on an embedded device, serving a high-load web gateway, or providing millions of files. Protocol Labs recently renamed their canonical go-ipfs to kubo (https://github.com/ipfs/kubo ) to make it more of a peer with other implementations.
Of course, I love all these new generation implementations EQUALLY, but if you pushed me, I've enjoyed playing around with https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh , a modular rust implementation building off the increasingly robust rust libp2p etc libraries. There's some more to pick from here: https://docs.ipfs.tech/basics/ipfs-implementations/

GNU/Hurd strikes back: How to use the legendary OS in a (somewhat) practical way
Even in the noncommercial world, Hurd's gone precisely nowhere. RedoxOS is a toy and had a GUI within a year or so. Brutal got in within two. SerenityOS not only built a GUI but the beginnings of the first greenfield web browser to gain any semblance of modern standards support in the past several decades. Honestly, what's Hurd doing wrong to flounder so hard?

Rust is ugly, doesn’t even let you write simple data structures, unsafe rust is not even defined, makes the simplest things so hard to write and did I mention it’s ugly?
Ah yes, std, that famous crate that is unusable for systems programming. God forbid anyone do any "systems" programming that uses std.

The wild world of non-C operating systems
Looks like C++ to me!
And my point is that when you mention OS-es like Mezzano (3k stars on Github, a dozen contributors [1]) and Redox (13k stars, 80 contributors [2]), but don't mention Serenity (18k stars, over 100 contributors [3] (Github limits this view to the top 100)) it seems funny.

How far are we from writing Redox on Redox?
Side note, blog posts may have been quiet but there's still been some commit activity here and there.

Porting QEMU to RedoxOS
>I wish opportunities had been around when I was learning to program.
And yet now, we have plenty of projects and nobody contributing.
https://github.com/redox-os/redox/graphs/contributors
This graph doesn't look so healthy. Projects with one major contributor tend to die the moment that contributor loses interest.
Which leads me to wonder, if rust is so popular, and this is one of the most relevant rust projects in the wild, why is this essentially a single contributor repo? Linus didn't write Linux by himself. Redox is never going to happen with a single developer.
Doesn't anyone want a memory safe OS and micro kernel? What does this say about the demand for memory safe systems languages?
